Landmark study proves that magnets can control heat and sound

Experiment reveals new mysterious properties of sound waves

COLUMBUS, Ohio—Researchers at The Ohio State University have discovered how to control heat with a magnetic field. In the March 23 issue of the journal Nature Materials, they describe how a magnetic field roughly the size of a medical MRI reduced the amount of heat flowing through a semiconductor by 12 percent. The study is the first ever to prove that acoustic phonons—the elemental particles that transmit both heat and sound—have magnetic properties.

Fracking is on the Way OUT

The millions of dollars spent on those TV commercials gushing out – like an out-of-control oil well – fracking industry propaganda promoting the industry's environment-destroying, water-poisoning and earthquake-making radical gas extraction practices will be all for naught if this article is correct – which strikes me as very convincing – in stating that added oil storage capability will disappear by this summer. The price of gasoline will drop like a Florida sinkhole and one wonders if they will be even able to give gas away free:

Depaving Cities, Undamming Rivers: How We're Undoing the Damage

The largest dam-removal project in history reached completion last fall, when excavators dredged the final tons of pulverized concrete from the Elwha River channel in Western Washington. Native fish, banished for 100 years from their historic spawning habitat, already were rediscovering the Elwha's newly accessible upper stretches. Within weeks of the final explosion in August, threatened bull trout and chinook salmon were spotted migrating beyond the rubble.

Yet again we have evidence that the compassionate life-affirming choice in social programs is not only the most wellness oriented, it is also cheaper, and more efficient. We see this over and over, so one must ask, why so often is this not the option chosen? Hate, a need to punish the vulnerable? Self-righteous superiority? Just plain nastiness? Given the evidence I think we ought to be asking this question.

Giving Homes to the Homeless is Cheaper Than Leaving them on the Street. Here’s Proof

Arithmetic is truth folks.  It cannot be swayed by political argument nor by appeals to authority.  All such attempts that fail the essential test of fundamental algebra must be challenged and exposed as unworkable.  Further, those who proposed such fundamentally-disprovable theorems must be called out; we must insist that they either repudiate their position, disprove what appears to be an irrefutable mathematical fact that their claims are unworkable, or admit the actual motivational factor that was behind their attempted sales job.
